Full description
Take part in an unforgettable husky sled ride under the Northern Lights in Finland’s Lapland. Steer your own team of adorable huskies, see the aurora borealis lights phenomenon, and enjoy a barbecue inside a traditional Finnish Kota.
Get closer to nature and drive across beautiful snowy landscapes set in the middle of the Arctic’s wilderness. Experience a setting with almost no light pollution- a perfect place for Northern Lights watching.
During a clear night, admire the moonlight reflecting on the snow and thousands of stars shining in the sky. There are not many places left on the planet that offer such a great night sky view.
Drive for approximately 6-10 km through beautiful landscapes alongside an experienced musher who will guide the tour. Take a break in the middle to take great pictures with the cute four-legged friends.
Once back from the sled ride, warm up inside a traditional Kota (wood cabin) by a fire as you are treated to a small Finnish barbecue. Here, there is even a chance of seeing more of the Northern Lights outside of the Kota.
